Well, if you plan to work on Scute and release a new version, please consider applying your own patch for support of TLS 1.2. You posted that patch on the gnupg-devel list some months ago [1], but it never made its way to the public repository.

This patch is not only useful for TLS 1.2, it also makes Scute work with Thunderbird to apply S/MIME signatures to emails, and even with LibreOffice to sign OpenDocument files (well, with LibreOffice it only works if the card PIN has already been verified; otherwise LibreOffice crashes, but I don’t think this is Scute’s fault).

And although I didn’t have the chance to test, I suspect that with this patch, Scute could also work with GNOME Evolution.

May I remind you also of a patch I posted in january [2], which fixes a bug that caused Scute to fail to sign anything in some occasions (only when used with GnuPG 2.1, not 2.0).
